Disease relevance of IMPDH2

 

High impact information on IMPDH2

  • We evaluated a selection scheme based on the expression of a variant of inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase 2 (IMPDH2), the rate-limiting enzyme in the de novo purine biosynthesis pathway [4].
  • IMPDH 2 messenger RNA (mRNA) and IMPDH protein were both regulated reciprocally by changes in levels of their end-products [5].
  • One of these metabolites (M-2), identified as an acyl glucuronide of MPA, was found to inhibit IMPDH-II in vitro [6].
  • Assignment1 of inosine '-monophosphate dehydrogenase type 2 (IMPDH2) to human chromosome band 3p21.2 by in situ hybridization [7].
  • Among the differentially expressed genes we chose for further validation were inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase type II (IMPDH2), inosine monophosphate cyclohydrolase and survivin as up-regulated genes, and topoisomerase I (TOP1) and vimentin as down-regulated genes [1].
